Pendingmessages

[Richard Miller]

Ken,

Yes, I was thinking of taking that approach, but if I understand  
Richard, he's saying that no pending messages could be effecting an  
ongoing ftp file transfer.... even if one of those pending messages  
was an ftp transfer scheduled for the same time as the ongoing transfer.

Am I understanding correctly?

Thanks.
Richard Miller
